    I LOVE this mermaid looking in. The lighting/Victorian aura is fabulous. I think you should do some mermaid cards and shirts, because this is the second or third mermaid post you have done that I just love.

      Thank you so much — it’s one of my favorite mermaid images too — partly because I had so much trouble making the pic — I resized the mermaid too big so it kept winking in and out of existence because it’s script didn’t work right at that size — but I wanted it at that size so I kept clicking until I finally got a pic where it winked in. That’s a little “Nemo” apartment I created underwater on Nykus, Winter’s sim. I’m playing a harpischord that’s loaded with real harpischord music — the sound is a little different from a piano. It’s really cool. The underwater apartment and whale is still there but I had to put the mermaid away as the poor thing was damaged. The “real” size of the mermaid was about the size of my hand so you wouldn’t have been able to see her regular size unless I cammed in real close — but they were designed to swim around in the water which is cool. I’m looking around for Grecian/Roman type ruins these days to create an underwater ruined Atlantis scenario but havne’t found ones I’ve liked yet.
      I have done mermaid cards. Two so far I think but I’m redesigning the design blog site so I’m behind on my uploads. Zazzle postcards are on sale 40%. If you want to do a postcard of Cleo or Shasta, it’s pretty easy to upload and create a postcard at Zazzle. The Blank postcard link — with 40%, each postcard is 57 cents and if you do the 30-day free trial of Black Zazzle, shipping is free. Remember to quit before the 30 days or you end up paying $9.99 for the year for the free shipping program. It depends what size your pic is, how well the postcard prints out. I did a tutorial with a 3-min video — it’s a keychain but the postcard and everything else is the same process. Since Zazzle let’s you input text by clicking “add text” and has a large choice of fonts, you could even make one of your poems into a postcard …. oh! I should do a tutorial on that here, i think people here would love to make their poems into a postcard. If you do decide to do a postcard on Cleo or Shasta, scan it and share it — would love to see it.
      My store link — if you click on the store link, it takes you to the Zazzle store where you can click on my collection tabs — I have notecards under Notecards which has one mermaid pic you might like — I don’t think you’ll like the mermaid with baby krakens one. The pretty mermaid is also under postcards. That reminds me I have to put some of the notecards images on postcards and upload a few more notecards — I’m kinda behind on uploading since I was working on doing the redesign.
